FF7_Yuffie Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 This tooth is from Harding County, Hell Creek formation. Now--it is tiny. 1mm long, so is the smallest tooth I own by far, but it has quite clear serrtations that can be photographed. It came with a few others and this one stands out because of its fatness and squatness (most of the others are long, relatively speaking) I am wondering if possibly, maybe, hopefully .... I may have a baby/infant Rex? Now, unfortunately, the base is a bit thin--but could that be because of the size of the tooth? It's quite an unusual one and hope it can be ID'd Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanotyrannus35 Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 It looks pretty robust, so it could be rex. However, the mesial serrations aren't very good, so it might be hard to identify. 1 Enthusiastic Fossil Hunter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Troodon Posted May 17, 2022 Share Posted May 17, 2022 Very very cool tooth at 1mm it's super rare. You just don't see them that size. Have to wonder if this is a germ tooth and really did not have a formed root. The profile certainly suggest a posterior Trex tooth but 1mm who knows. Very cool all I can say. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
